    Boys have a pointy anal fin, the girls have a fanned one.

    If you look under them the males look like they have a skinny, solid fin underneath them ;)

    Turn your heater up. 85 degrees usually kills the parasite.

    Add salt.. Freshwater salt. Salt helps the fish relax and heal faster.

    Get a copper based medicine such as Coppersafe by Mardel.

    Its not recommended to do a lot of water changes during treatments. Typically, you want to do the treatment, most ask for the medicine to be re added to the same water in 2 days without a water change. In 7 days.. do a partial water change. During this time, take the carbon out. The carbon will deactivate the medication. After the 7 days, if the symptoms haven't gone away, do it all over again until its all gone.

    This website has some good info.

    Just an update, all my fishies survived the ick! I had one casualty, well I think I did, because one of my male sword tales is totally MIA. Not sure if the tetra, the molly, the female sword tale or the pleco ate him, but he is gone :(

    I am now a back yard fish breeder! My red eye tetra had a baby! :D
